Original subtitles

How did you know?

About the bribe.

It was glaringly obvious.

Our eyes met.

You sat with your entire body facing the desk drawer.

Anyone would have known.

See you tomorrow.

By the way...

Would you keep it a secret?

You threw away 50 million won,

but people think I did it.

Buy me dinner for a month.

Drinks, too.

Instead...

Instead, I will give you money.

People will start talking if I eat with a female colleague.

Mister.

You must think you are quite attractive.

-People will talk. -How much will you give me?

How much do you want?

Ten million won.

How was it found in the trash can?

He threw it away.

-Who did? -Who else? Dong-hoon.

He told me he lost it.

Maybe Mr. Yoon took it.

Maybe he wanted to save it for himself after framing Dong-hoon.

Then it wouldn't have gotten found in the trash can.

Then how did it end up in the trash can?

Dong-hoon was scared out of his wits saying he had lost it when he came to me.

Maybe he lost it by mistake.

What kind of a fool loses 50 million won by mistake?

There must be more to the story, right?

I think it would be best to tell him all honestly.

Would you be able to tell him?

"Do Jun-yeong and I are in love. Please sign the divorce papers

and leave the company quietly."

Would you be able to tell him all?

That would be crueler for a man.

Don't do anything. I will take care of it.

What are you going to do?

MR. PARK DONG-HOON

MS. KANG YUN-HUI

With whom did you drink until this hour?

Isn't it obvious?

With whom did you drink?

My colleagues, of course. Who else?

What about the money?

I found it.

Where did you find it?

I just found it.

Where?

Where?

A cleaner found it in the trash can and brought it.

Why do people think you threw it away?

Says who?

Who says I threw it away?

I called Jun-yeong.

Why did you call that punk?

I couldn't reach you. Jun-yeong was the only one I could call.

That punk's eyes are filled with greed,

but he goes around smiling like a saint because he is the CEO.

He can't fool me.

I told you not to rip the plastic bag!

You will put it back in the fridge as it is, right?

Then the food will dry out. How many times do I have to tell you?

I found the money.

Everything has been solved.

I am sorry.

It won't happen again.

Don't call Jun-yeong from now on.

The train for Hyoje is now approaching.

Please wait behind the yellow line.

The doors are opening.

The doors are closing.

-Hello. -Hello.

-Hello. -Hello.

It's a tapping device detector.

He probably has one on his phone, too.

Let's take out Park Dong-hoon first.

My beloved brother.

I envy you the most in the world.

You are the general manager of a big company.

You have someplace to be in the morning.

There,

you have a young female employee who loves you.

The idea was so incredibly exciting

that I woke up early in the morning.

In my next life,

I want to be you.

If you have nothing else to do, go back to bed.

Okay.

Dong-hoon, hang in there.

Good luck.

Are you trying to break it?

Every company has a malfunctioning photocopier,

but she is being too loud.

Why are you so startled?

Come with me.

That 50 million was sent to you with an intention

to fire you for bribery.

At first, I thought I was the original target

and that their plan was thwarted since the bribe went

to you instead due to the similarity of our names.

But I can't be certain. You could have been the original target.

Perhaps both of us are.

But who would... Why?

There is only one man. Do Jun-yeong.

I know he wants to fire me because I plan to drag him down.

But why does he want to fire you?

He was pretty determined to fire you.

If you think about it, he is the one who moved you to Safety Inspection Team.

I thought he simply wanted to avoid you

since you were his senior in university.

But this incident tells me that can't be the only reason.

He even lied about how you confessed to bribe-taking.

There must be something.

Do you have any idea?

No.

Is there something between the two of you I don't know about?

There is no such thing. We don't even talk to each other.

Why are the two of you on bad terms?

Why would we be on good terms?

In any case, keep your eyes open.

Since you threw away the 50 million won,

they were caught by surprise.

They will make another move soon.

Before that, we need to find the company that sent the bribe

and take them out. Otherwise--

Only girls chatter in the restroom.

I am 100 percent sure they were scheming.

He is already planning something with Park Dong-hoon on his side.

I am 100 percent sure.

There is nothing to scheme. I am sure he was fishing for information

to find out who sent the money.

Should I know the information or not?

I will follow your decision.

-If it's an engineering company-- -I don't fool around

when it comes to engineering and safety. I am an engineer, too.

It's a temporary agency.

I can do it, too!

-I can do it, too! -I can do it, too!

All right. I saw some of you last year.

Raise your hand if you were here last year.

-That's good. -They send us temporary workers

and take the brokerage.

We get over 100 temporary workers.

Please do your very best

to avoid the misfortune of getting fired before your contract ends.

It will be best for you and the company.

We need to be happy. Let's be happy!

Many workers only exist on paper.

After all, we don't care how many cleaners there are in the company.

It's the chief of the temporary agency who takes care of the workers.

So if the chief says there are 30 people, we nod and move along.

That way, we pay them more brokerage.

That's why the president of the agency provided the money.

What is the president like?

He is a bit of a thug, but he is loyal. He would keep his mouth shut.

A thug with loyalty?

He values money above all else.

He is very strict and straightforward when money is involved.

That's great. Schedule a dinner with him sometime.

He would be honored.

Okay.

-Are they coming from China tomorrow? -The day after tomorrow.

I wondered if I would get to design a building

that goes over 100 stories before I die. I guess I would.

-Treat them well. -Yes, sir.

Make sure the Chinese guests get to eat a lot of food.

Get back to work.

Are you free this evening? I would like to treat you to dinner.

I have been in a good mood for the past couple of days thanks to you.

What do you like?

I...

I have an appointment today.

I am sorry.

That can't be helped. In that case, you can set the date.

It doesn't matter when. I am free.

You are so haughty.

Mr. Park is a good man, but he is a bit headstrong.

All engineers are the same.

Playing with the numbers makes them rather stubborn.

Go back to work.

Are you leaving so soon?

I got rejected, so I have no choice.

Don't come down.

I will go with you.

So the budget you mentioned is...

Park Dong-un and Park Dong-hoon. I will get both of them fired.

Welcome.

Where do you live?

Behind Anhan Elementary School.

That's right. It's a lousy neighborhood.

What does your father do?

What does your father do, Mister?

I am not curious in the slightest.

So why are you curious about my father?

It's a simple question.

Why would you just ask such a question?

Adults just ask such question to the young ones.

To figure out how much money their family has

by the father's profession?

-I am sorry. -It's discourteous.

It was discourteous of me.

I have never taken a bribe before.

I wasn't going to keep it.

I simply hesitated for a moment.

That 50 million won was a trap.

Someone did it to fire me for bribery.

Who did it?

Who do you think did it?

Mr. Do Jun-yeong.

Why?

You seem to be close to Mr. Park Dong-un, so it can't be someone on his side.

It's someone on the opposite side.

But Mr. Yoon wouldn't have procured 50 million won on his own.

That leaves us with Mr. Do Jun-yeong.

Why would he do that to me?

Who knows? Why do you think he did it?

I don't know.

Don't you have any idea?

He must know that I hate him.

Why do you hate him?

You don't need a reason to hate someone. I just do.

You can usually find the reason if you think about it.

With some people, you don't even want to think about the reason.

You really do hate him.

It must be painful to see him so successful.

All the people I hate become successful.

Would you hate me?

Hate me like there is no tomorrow

with your utmost passion.

In return, I will hate you

with my utmost passion.

The train for Danggok is approaching.

Please wait behind the yellow line.

The doors are opening.

Excuse me.

-Don't push! -I am not the one who is pushing!

For goodness' sake.

-For goodness' sake. -Come on!

Wait for the next train!

-Please take the bag down. -Move a bit.

-I am not the one who is pushing. -Sir.

-Watch it. -Please move a bit.

-For goodness' sake. -That's my leg!

-I didn't do it. -Sir.

-This is driving me crazy. -Give me the bag.

-I am getting off at this stop. -I am getting off at this stop.

-Watch it. -Sir.

I am getting off.

Stop it.

This station has a gap between the train and the platform.

Please mind the gap as you get off the train.

It's working.

What is Mom doing?

Open the door quietly.

Why did you come home already?

I thought you were going to work as a guard.

I can't do it

because of my bad credit.

Didn't you tell them beforehand?

You didn't tell them beforehand

and went all the way to Yeongjong Island to get rejected?

You're still giving him freshly-made rice.

Everyone said it's hard to get accepted into college,

but my three sons did it in a breeze.

I thought I had given birth to three geniuses.

Worried that people's jealousy would ruin my children's future,

I did my absolute best not to brag.

But you turned out to be good-for-nothings with a degree!

I had no idea

that my sons would live off me when they aren't even 50 years old.

Why did you even study? Why?

I studied because you asked me to.

Who is it?

-Who is it? -Hello.

Is Mr. Park Sang-hoon home?

-Who are you? -I am from a credit reporting agency.

He doesn't live here.

His wife said he lives here.

Why does she always send people here?

I am telling you he isn't here!

He avoids us because he owes us money, too.

He doesn't even come to Father's memorial services.

So look for him someplace else, okay?

I will kill him once I get my hands on him!

Aren't you Mr. Park Sang-hoon?

Me? No, I am not.

-You are, right? -No, I am not.

Come on. I know you are.

For goodness' sake.

You are a lousy actor.

Can't you see that I am sweating?

I endured the embarrassment and acted to the best of my abilities.

How could you give such an idiotic response?

When I offer help, you should make the most of it.

How are you such a lousy actor when you watch TV dramas all day long?

-Gosh, you are thick-headed -Goodness.

because you drink all the time!

What was I supposed to do, you asshole? I am not thick-skinned like you.

Get out. Both of you, get out.

Just take him.

Why didn't you tell them about your bad credit?

Had I told them, they wouldn't have given me a chance.

So it was my plan to go and beg.

How much money do you have?

There he comes.

Gosh, he is speeding again. It's a yellow light!

Gosh, no!

-Come on! -That bastard.

My heart was in my mouth!

Stop driving like that!

You will crash the car!

Did you get kicked out again?

-Do you think it's funny? -It's extremely funny.

WITH COUPLE'S LOVE, COUPLE'S CLEANING SERVICE

I had to pull your car back up when it fell on its side two times.

You could get into a serious accident if you keep speeding.

You don't know what it's like. It's impossible to stop at a yellow light.

How is work?

I have had it with its nastiness.

There are people who poop on the stairs.

It can't be someone who lives in the building.

A passer-by must have run inside in a hurry.

Why are you alone? Where is your wife?

She ran out in tears in the middle of cleaning.

Going from being the wife of a director at a pharmaceutical company

to a cleaner made her cry.

You don't get credit for working and bringing money home all your life.

You just get punished for failing to make money.

Is Dong-hoon the only one among those in the neighborhood

who still works at a big company?

That son of a bitch.

That bastard ignored our texts yesterday.

He must be glad it's winter.

The night is long.

Stop it already.

Make me some instant coffee.

You should have come sooner. We only have a few candidates left.

I will choose this one.

-This one? -Yes.

I picked her résumé as a surplus.

Would you really be okay with her?

Her hobby is running.

It's nice and simple.

Don't complain later.

You are the one who picked her, okay?

We are done.

What an age we live in.

When we inspected a nuclear power plant back in the day,

we went up with packed lunch and sat on the top dome to eat.

We drank coffee afterward, too.

Mr. Park, you are talking about the ancient times again.

"Ancient times"?

Do you know when drones came into use? It has only been ten years.

Before that, going up took two hours and inspecting took two hours.

Lunchtime came right in the middle. I have had lunch up there, too.

Hey, is that a trend?

What? What trend?

Wearing low-cut socks in the middle of winter.

-Your ankles will freeze. -Isn't it sexy?

Sexy, my ass.

Let's hurry up and go back before the rush hour.

Okay.

We are back.

-Thank you for your hard work. -Thank you for your hard work.

-Give me that. We will take that. -Thank you.

Thank you for your hard work.

-I will put things away after washing up. -All right.

Yong-dae, don't forget to send the email.

Okay. I will send it right away.

-Some hot coffee and... -Okay.

-Sir. -Yes?

-Do you have it? -Yes.

Okay.

Mr. Park, I will come back after washing up.

Okay.

What do you want?

-Caffe latte. -Caramel macchiato.

-Ms. Jung, are you going for coffee? -Yes.

-I have a coupon. -What?

Let me send an email and join you. It will be my treat.

Oh, yes! Thank you.

SUPPORT TEAM

-Where are you going? -Why?

Please lend me 5,000 won. I can't use a credit card with a coupon.

Thank you.

I have been meaning to ask,

but why do they give the bribe in gift vouchers, not cash?

The Audit Team is fastidious in any company.

It isn't easy to procure untraceable money.

Purchasing gift vouchers with a company card leaves a record.

It only takes a three-percent deduction to change the gift vouchers into cash.

That's why they give gift vouchers. I thought it was about the idea of a gift.

-I will bring back 5,000 won. -Okay.

Okay. Check the seismic loading instead of the wind loading.

-Okay. -Let's start from the beginning.

Hey.

It's me. Where are you right now?

The meeting room on the 16th floor.

It's for the Chinese buyers who are coming tomorrow. Why?

I will go to you. Okay.

GI-BEOM

Call Park Dong-hoon right now.

Hang up and call again repeatedly.

Wait.

You have missed calls. Your phone kept ringing.

3 MISSED CALLS

Move your car. Why did you park your car here?

I don't have a car.

-Isn't your license plate number 1070? -No.

You are right. There is no way they used cash.

They must have used a company card.

It wouldn't be hard to find a transaction of 50 million won on a company card.

I will look into it.

My friend works at a department store.

He will help if I ask nicely.

Even if we find the company that provided the money,

will they tell us who gave the order?

They will tell us all to save themselves.

They won't even hesitate to make things up.

We will get Do Jun-yeong, that punk.

Once he gets fired,

let's go to the East Sea to have abalones and soju.

Let's stare at the blue sea. I can't remember the last time I did that.

The work environment used to be great back in the day.

We went on a trip every season to raise the spirits.

I will meet my friend today.

This is the secretary's room.

Safety Inspection Team Three.

Mr. Do, it's a call from Safety Inspection Team Three.

Park Dong-un will consult his friend at a department store

to find out who used a company card to pay 50 million won.

We won't be able to meet the deadline that way.

You should have worked out the right order.

Okay. Yes, sir.

For goodness' sake!

The Parks must have been my enemies in my past life.

What took you so long to pick up? What? A meeting?

You had better answer my questions carefully.

You had better do that.

Did you use cash or a company card?

From now on, don't do anything even if the cause is noble!

You will end up getting everyone arrested!

Are you the one who found gift vouchers in the trash can the other day?

They were in a yellow envelope.

Yes, I am.

I see. Thank you. Thanks to you...

Thank you so much.

This isn't much, but...

No, thank you. I am not allowed to take a gift.

It's okay. Please take it. Thank you so much.

-Tonight-- -I will call you.

You might lose ten million won. You had better run fast.

Don't act like you care.

Carry your 2G cell phone. Put it on silent mode.

Where are you hiding?

There are saunas all over Seoul.

That means you aren't staying at a sauna.

You are smart.

Why did you put down the wrong address?

Did you do it to avoid the creditors?

You should still visit sometime and collect your mail.

People who live there keep getting a full mailbox because of you.

The care facility was looking for you for overdue fees.

I paid them instead. 4,800,000 won.

How much do you owe me now?

It's strange,

but I feel like I am putting money into an installment savings account.

No matter how hard you try, you will never get away from me.

Bring me the money

before I send out people to catch you, bitch.

Go home. I will call a chauffeur.

SHINE

Yes. It's Shine at Nonhyeon-dong.

MOTHER'S GIMBAP

SHINE

It's an order from a customer. It's rare to have food delivered here.

Who ordered gimbap? Who ordered gimbap?

Gimbap is here. Who ordered gimbap?

What?

Who ordered gimbap? Gimbap... This isn't the room.

Who ordered gimbap? Who ordered gimbap? Gimbap...

Who ordered gimbap? Gimbap... Who ordered gimbap?

-Gift vouchers are popular, right? -Yes, they are.

-What is it? -Did you order two burdock root gimbap?

For goodness' sake.

I am sorry.

Isn't this the place? For goodness' sake.

They are drinking.

-What? -What...

-What's going on? -Why did the light go out?

-What's going on? Did something happen? -What's going on?

-Let's go outside. -What?

-What's going on? -Hey! What's going on?

-For goodness' sake. -Should we leave?

-Hey, Manager. -Bring your boss!

-Where is the manager? -Turn on the light!

-Manager! Did something happen? -What's going on?

How could you let this happen?

-Seriously. -What's going on?

-Is the building on fire? -Let's go out.

Are you going to just stand there?

-Is this how you run a business? -For goodness' sake.

-For goodness' sake. -I apologize, Sir.

I am sorry this happened when I brought you here.

-Let's go back inside. -Okay.

-Let's have a drink. -Okay.

Let's go back to what we were talking about.

The gift vouchers.

Go.

CHICKEN AND BEER

Tomorrow?

You became younger in a matter of a few days, my brother.

-You wake up cheerfully now, right? -Stop.

-What did the two of you do yesterday? -I told you to stop.

She is only a girl.

Why would you make such remarks about someone else's daughter?

How would you feel if some jerks talk about Eun-jin that way?

Why would you bring her up?

What fun do I have in life other than teasing you?

Besides, even if you aren't interested, she...

All right. Okay. For goodness' sake.

It was the first fun incident in a while.

I suddenly feel bored.

I knew you wouldn't cause trouble.

You are strong against temptations.

Do you think I haven't caused trouble

because I am strong against temptations?

See you tomorrow.

Open your bag.

You are fired. You don't need to come again.

Bye. See you tomorrow. All right.

I will shoot a movie!

Ae-ryeon, what brings you here? Sang-hoon isn't here.

I am so sick and tired of this trio.

The three of you are dating, right?

Why else would you be together all the time?

The three of you are dating, right?

-Let's not meet for a while. -Gosh.

I am begging you. I no longer have the energy to yell.

I am begging you.

Let's get a divorce. Let's part ways

so that our addresses will be separate. Please do that, okay?

Honey! Hold on.

-Hold on. Honey. -Let go!

Honey. Hold on.

Honey, I will pay off the debt no matter what it takes.

How? How will you pay off the debt?

How will you pay off the debt?

Let's just get a divorce.

Maybe you should get a divorce and put your heart to rest.

I will never get a divorce.

I will be poor and sick everywhere.

Once Mom passes away and Gi-hoon gets married,

I will be an old man who lives alone.

Even if I collect the waste paper to get by,

it won't be too bad if I have a wife.

If she sees me make at least a million won a month,

she will take me back.

Until then,

I will have as many affairs as I want.

I am so excited about having affairs.

I am glad you find this funny.

What's the use of tears when my life is in ruins anyway?

It will only break Mom's heart.

There aren't even stars in the sky.

Going up. The doors are closing.

Come on out. Buy me dinner.

It's late.

Excuse me. Give me my cell phone before you leave.

For goodness' sake!

When did I come here yesterday? With whom?

I don't know because I wasn't on duty.

I will be back. Don't touch the security cameras!

If you do, I will kill you!

For goodness' sake.

-Bye. -Bye.

Are you okay?

He's very late.

What's going on?

-The traffic in Seoul can get very bad. -This cell phone has been switched off.

Is he on his way?

They want to know if he is coming at all.

Yes, he is on his way.

He will definitely be here.

This cell phone has been switched off. Please leave...

Call again.

The cell phone has been switched off.

Is he out of his mind?

I think we need to reconsider our decision for the company.

-We are sorry. We are truly sorry. -We're very sorry.

Cancel all our plans in Korea.

We'll be flying back to Shanghai today.

We are sorry.

-We're sorry. -We're very sorry.

-Are you serious? -I am serious. They just left.

Seriously.

So many reporters are calling. They are quick.

-Because of that, Mr. Yoon... -What...

-Mr. Park is at the police station. -Why?

-A hit-and-run. -A hit-and-run?

The reporters are calling the company to see if it's true

that an executive caused a hit-and-run accident.

-I can't believe it. -Maybe he went someplace else.

-Apparently, he is at a police station. -What?

He is at a police station.

The heavens helped us. Who knew he would trip over himself?

Not even Mr. Chairman will be able to cover up for him.

-Yes. -Prepare ten million won.

Am I next?

Why?

I haven't done anything to you.

I haven't shown my hatred of you.

Why would I need to fire you?

You might mistakenly think I schemed to have Mr. Park Dong-un fired

since he is my match.

But why would I need to fire you?

Perhaps you did me wrong

and I just don't know about it.

You want me to be an assistant director for you? Again?

I am here to talk about my screenplay.

-I don't know about your screenplay. -Why not? It's in Korean.

It's boring. Don't make me put it bluntly.

Are you going to take the job or not?

Let's not see each other again.

If I just say that, we will surely see each other again.

Let me punch you just once.

You will call me again since I am the best in the field.

Despite this insult,

I will come again since I need the money. Let's not do that.

Forget it, you punk. There are other people who want the job.

Hey. Listen.

Let me punch you just once. Our friendship ends here in this lifetime.

I will kill you in my next life, so you had better hide!

Our friendship ends here in this lifetime!

For goodness' sake.

Take this punch!

For goodness' sake!

My goodness.

-Come on out. Have a drink with me. -I really won't take the job.

-You have been saying that for a decade. -I really won't take the job.

Then how are you going to make a living?

I have lived 20 years with an annual salary of 5 million won.

I would be able to make that much no matter where I go.

Neither one of us are in the industry because of money.

Stop it already! This isn't the first time!

For goodness' sake!

I wasn't talking to you.

It really is impossible to stop at a yellow light.

I couldn't help but speed.

What is going on?

Je-cheol said his wife wants to run a jokbal restaurant.

He would try even if the business fails.

I took it over from him.

I will pay him back the premium every month.

So I... My goodness.

Gi-hoon.

Why don't you join me?

Okay. Let's do this.

-Hurry up and climb out. -Okay. I will do that.

CLEANING

BROTHERS CLEANING SERVICE

BROTHERS CLEANING SERVICE

I thought they would make use of the education they received.

I don't know if it's the trend or their fate.

What use are regrets?

Everything is set now. Both of them will make money

and live as responsible adults.

They won't trouble you again.

Everything is set now.

Come on out. Buy me dinner.

If Sang-hoon earns money honestly and pays off his debt,

Ae-ryeon will stop asking

for a divorce.

LEE JI-AN

Please select the transaction you desire.

SHORT TERM CREDIT CARD LOAN

It's a million won. I can't give you ten million won at once.

I will give you a million won a month.

So let's stop having dinner together.

Why? Are you scared people will talk?

Yes.

It's uncomfortable to have dinner in secret.

I thought you would find it fun.

Are you scared you will fall for me?

Just tell people that you threw away the 50 million won.

That would be better than getting pushed around at this age.

Tell people that you threw away the money.

I will say that I didn't mean to keep it.

What are you playing at?

Why are you following me?

What?

What?

Don't do that.

Don't.

Don't you understand?

Do you think I haven't caused trouble

because I am strong against temptations?

There haven't been any temptations.

So I don't know

whether I am strong against temptations.

JI-AN

Yes. I took a photo.

Why would he get fired?

Dong-hoon will work at the company until he's 70.

Why did you make a move without my permission?

I already began the work.

Do your parents know that you behave this way?

Do your parents know that you live this way?

Watch your tongue.

Not a day goes by without an incident!

No matter the case,

you shouldn't act that way in front of someone's family.

Children who have been hurt grow up too fast.

I can see that. So I pity her.

A diligent lifer.
